Is it compatible with USB 1 ports? as my PC is old and it doesn't have a USB 2 port.

All USB 2.0 devices are backward-compatible, but they will of course function more slowly.Buying and installing a USB 2.0 card in your machine may be a worthwhile investment.

Yes, I believe it does. I have the 1gb model and it works fine with my laptop that sports USB1.1 ports.

Yes, this drive is completely backward compatible with USB 2.0. I use it on my older, HP Pavilion desktop PC which "only" has USB 2.0 and it works flawlessly. Purchase with confidence.

Is the USB port 2.0 and powered? Mine won't charge off the old USB 1.1 on my old (2001) computer.

NO, USB 2 only. The only reason USB 3 is mentioned is that it will work in a USB 3 port, but it will be USB 2 speed.

It automatically loads it's drivers and is usable on both my Dell and HP laptops. There are USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 version ports. I've had other USB sticks that will work in one version of the port and not another. Look into that being the problem.

If the port is a USB 1 or 2 compliant port, then yes; this unit is backwards-compatible with the older standards and should be usable.

It will work in the USB 2.0 port, but at the slower speed. That is what I am doing and it is fine.

Its only USB 2, I recommend checking their website-Clickfree.com they have newer items with USB 3 & Windows 8 on down. Hope this helps.

It works with Windows 7, which is what I used. I don't know about USB 2.0. It has a USB cable. I plugged it in. It worked.

Yes, I yhinkYes, I believe it has two USB ports. But I sent mine back for a refund because I hated Windows 8.

Seems to work well when connected to a regular USB port. So far I have not confirmed that any of the USB ports I have used are USB2. I apologize for that. Good luck with finding a definate answer.

My pc is about the same age, and it worked perfectly. As long as your usb ports are ok, you should be fine.

A couple of the answers are not correct.Requirements are:A. one USB 3.0B. USB 2.0 MIGHT require two, MIGHT work with just one (will depend on you port)C. One USB 2.0 and an external power supply (Not included), if one USB 2.0 isn't enough and a second USB 2.0 isn't available.
